Summer is coming, which means one thing... summer romance is back.

This week, Steph and Holly are getting ready for summer loving with dating updates, old holiday flings and one confession involving their brother’s best friend that probably should have stayed buried on the Surf Coast.

Then it’s over to the Neighbours.

Is it your responsibility to look after the family dog when your sister still lives at home? What happens to the friendship group when two people inside it break up? And how much is too much to ask from a bridesmaid who is already dealing with one of the hardest years of her life?

Things only get messier when one Neighbour realises her boyfriend might be planning a proposal after she has already told him she isn’t ready, while another discovers the girl she’s seeing has secretly been using her toothbrush.

Then we answer one of life's most important questions: why do some men not have a bin in their bathroom?

And just when we think we're done, this week's Horror Story turns a routine rental inspection into something genuinely terrifying.
